Christmas Day

Fitting: be agreeable or acceptable to; "This suits my needs".


Churching in the morning put me in a formal mood all day so I wore something nice and - i guess we could say, presentable, since I was also meeting up the boyfriend's family. My mom bought me these high waisted harems for Christmas which was perfect for church so I wore that to see his family as well.


(Mango cream tee, Zara black harems, Thrift ballet flats)

My feet were really aching from the day in heels before so I decided to go with my ballet flats today, and I thought it was a good match with the outfit as well. Appropriate for the occasion I suppose. 


We went over to his house and they ended up having a gift sharing game - I was very surprised to find a present wrapped up with my name written on it! I got this adorable fuschia wallet, bought from Debenhams (the tags were left on it because we were playing a guessing game).




Simple yet adorable. The color is very fitting for me if I must say so myself.



We spent the rest of the day downtown and it actually just felt like any other day. Not sure if that's good or bad, but I had a fun day nonetheless. How did you all spend your christmas?








Looking forward to New Year's,
Tammie.

Sorry for being a repeat offender, but these shoes (and the skirt) are so lovely I can't get enough of them. Wonder if wearing them to school would be appropriate... hahaha.
Anyways, so just had my exams today - still 4 more to go over the course of this week and next. I was just thinking of wearing my old plaid oversized tee because it's very comfortable and it's very lumberjack-esque. 
Lumberjack.
It definitely tones down an outfit, don't you think? So I tried pairing it with my ballet outfit:


(TopShop bodycon dress, Zara plaid oversized tee, TopShop chiffon wisteria Heels, Zara tutu skirt)


And who knew you can also wear it as a dress? My zara tutu skirt gives it a little more shape and volume and the sleeves act as a ribbon :) I can experiment with this more for sure.


Sorry for the out of focus picture:



Anyways, super brief post. I still have to study. 

 

Be original,
Tammie.

Wisteria Wonderland.

Wisteria: any flowering vine of the genus Wisteria

I don't even want to know what genus means. Haha, probably some plant related science-y name. Wow, I sound really dumb just now.
Anyways, these Topshop LIMITED EDITION Brand New Wisteria Chiffon Tie Wedge Heels (3 5.5 36 Rare) are in my possession. I have been drooling over Wisteria heels since for as long as I've known they existed, and I got my hands on the last pair in MY SIZE.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes on these new heels. The chiffon material fits perfectly on my feet and provides a comfortable padding. These heels look dangerously tall but believe it or not they are THE most comfortable pair of heels I have ever had/tried on/wore. Ever. The heels itself is about 12.5cm tall (around 5 inches). The covering is this light plum/pink suede and light as a feather. I can jump in them, I can run in them, I can go trekking with them if I have to but I won't because I don't want to ruin these heels.




My best splurge I would have to say, and of course my prized possesion. Goes well with everything. Especially my new ballet maxi skirt.




I can't wait to wear these babies around town.




Excited,
Tammie.

Ballet: a theatrical representation of a story that is performed to music by trained dancers

I'll divide up the posts so it's not one big post about things that I bought, because that would just be boring I suppose. I wore the new Zara top that I bought my mom today along with a short ballet skirt.
I bought a couple of ballet skirts over my stay in Singapore as they make a look that much more versatile, and I can easily wear them to school. They're very warm as well actually.


And I'm really glad I got around to buying those polka dot tights. There's a billion things that you can wear with them :)


I am wearing the dark blue zara top, with a tank top underneath, as well as a Zara ballet skirt (cotton lining), and New Look spotted tights.


I bought this skirt at a thrift for around 20 bucks which I thought was reasonable. I love it so much.


It's nice to try things that you normally wouldn't try, just to see how they turn out so I'm glad I got these ballet skirts.

Ciao,
Tammie.
